Peter Kwon Bariatric Surgeon M.D., FACS

Dr. Kwon & his staff in Middletown and Bon Secours is awesome! I would recommend him to anyone that wants to get the Lap Band. He has a strict pre op and post op plan and makes you go to 2 support groups before you meet with him so you can be sure that it is what you want to do. I would rate him a 10 out of 10!

DR. KWON IS A LIFE SAVER. I TRUSTED ALL HIS DECISION'S IN MAKING MY SURGERY A POSTIVE ONE. HIS STAFF ARE THE BEST AROUND. VERY PLESENT, HELPFUL , AND HAPPY PEOPLE. THANK YOU EVERYONE . ONE OF THE BEST PARTS ABOUT HIS PRACTICE IS HIS SUPPORT GROUP MEETINGS AND THE PEOPLE THAT RUN THEM. THE ARE VERY HELPFUL WITH ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. I WOULD RATE DR. KWON AND STAFF ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10 . .............10. THANKS AGAIN.

I really liked Dr. Kwon. I had a thing... that when I went into meet him, if I couldn't make him laugh or I didn't like the vibe I got when I shook his hand, he wasn't coming near me with a knife. Not only did I make him laugh, he made me comfortable, and I got a good vibe when we shook hands. The Day of the surgery he talked to me in the OR & I felt so much better seeing him. He came up to my room afterward to discharge me & was nice then too. I LOVE his staff they are always there when you need them & they are very sweet. Definately go to Dr. Kwon if you are planning on having this done!

I had my actual lap band surgery in Westchester, which is quite a drive from Sullivan county for the amount of necessary follow up. Three months after my surgery, in a struggleing state I inquired with Dr Kwons office because I had heard very good things about his program. I made an appointment and it has been the most enriching experience of my life. Dr Kwon is professional, serious and is so genuinely caring that honestly, words cannot give justice to his integrity and committment. He is dedicated and intelligent and his program works! Lap band is not just about the band itself, it is about the entire journey and follow up. Dr Kwon and his staff have the experience and knowledge to help you succeed using the lap band as a tool. I have lost over 100 lbs and Dr Kwon still continues to give me support and motivation as I now move into the maintainence stage of my journey. They are with me every step of the way, I feel that I have been so successful because of his direction, and committment. He has been very instrumental in helping me reach my weight loss goal, become healthy and active. I am proud to know him and share my admiration for him with everyone.

I am only 2 days post op. Dr. Kwon's office is very thorough and kind. They help make sure that you have everything that you need. Becky didn't just tell me what I needed to do, she made phone calls also and really helped me. I was very nervous to meet Dr. Kwon. I had spoken to people and everyone said how strict he was and it gave me an impression that he was going to be very \"stern\". When I met him, he was wonderful. So nice. He tells you how it is, that you need to follow the diet he gives you in order to be successful and at the same time helps you to realize that you can do it. My second thought after I met him was how competent he is. It is very evident when you talk to him about the surgery. He also listened. When I told him my feelings and thoughts he answered them. That really meant alot to me. My primary dr. doesn't even do that. I went into the operating room with all the knowledge that I could possibly have about my surgery. I will definitely steer anyone I know thinking about bariatric surgery to Dr. Kwon.

'My first impressions of Dr. Kwon were a little subjective

it is really such a great experience. Dr Kwon and his staff are so professional and most of all ...nice.
I had my surgery 7 weeks ago and im down 54 lbs over all...

Im very excited about the ease of this entire process...i can only say that if you are sick and tired of being overweight and the pains associated with that(emotional and physical) then look into this. You must be ready to be rid of it and simply use your band as a tool...if you do and follow EVERYTHING Dr Kwon says than you will have great success.

Dr. Kwon seemed very professional and respectful of my feelings . He seems like he is a caring and very educated Physician and he likes to make sure his patients continue with support groups after surgery to help with the success of their surgery. So far I would say he is a top notch Physician and would recommend him to anyone who asked. He will answer any and all questions you have, you just have to ask him. I am now three months post op and I still think I had the best surgeon there is.

Dr Kwon and his office staff are incredible. What a great experience.
